Tom and I decided that we would make mission to Lithuanian TV Tower today to see some proper sights as we had seen such a good view from the Castle tower the day before, the classic thing being that when we got there it was too cloudy that we wouldnt be able to see anything! Good planning! Really glad it was such a waste of time as the tower was situated in the Guetto of Vilnius, so we soon got our arses out of there! To kill the disappointment of nightmare at TV Tower, i went with Tom and Catherine to Genocide Victims Museum, soooo interesting learnt a lot from it, Lithuania has had a hard time of it in the last 100 years with the soviets and the Nazis, very detailed documentary with the most difficult part going through the old prison, where cells, torture rooms and the cells of Execution were situated! Hell!! I advice anyone who is in Vilnius to definately to go to the Museum.
